Start Sniffing / Kunsthalle Exnergasse, Wien

From September 25 to October 31, 2024, the exhibition “Start Sniffing” will take place at the Kunsthalle Exnergasse in Vienna, in which works by me will also be on show.

“The exhibition Start Sniffing focuses on collaborations between human and nonhuman artists, highlighting the scope of interspecies dialogue at eye level and integrating neighbouring fields of research in interdisciplinary human-animal studies, philosophy, and animal ethics. The question of how we can abandon human exceptionalism in an anthropocentric world order has also arisen within the art world – latest since the artistic method of “Artistic Interspecies Collaboration” coined by Lisa Jevbratt. From insights into the creative practices of non-human animals and co-creations by diverse interspecies collectives to artistic research projects in public spaces and pioneering human-animal scenarios, the exhibition brings together an array of passionate perspectives on interspecies art.”

“The position that non-human animals occupy in our cultural imagination is proof for how easy it is to accept the lower status of some beings without even a second thought.”
